Molecular spintronics based on hybrid compounds between organic conductors and transition metal complexes.

新合成了配体中含TTF基团的顺磁性金属配合物；TTF表示四噻吩烯及其衍生物是众所周知的分子导体的组成分子。研究了ttf基金属配合物的晶体结构和电导率等物理性能。我们成功地用真空蒸发法制备了Cu（II）配合物薄膜及其FET器件。由于在Cu（II）配合物的器件中未观察到FET特性，因此我们对TTF基金属配合物进行了修改，以便将湿法工艺应用于器件结构。制备了一种具有自组装能力的新型金属配合物；与TTF配体连接的具有长烷基链的立方金属配合物对某些有机溶剂具有凝胶作用。

Paramagnetic metal complexes with TTF moieties in their ligands were newly synthesized; TTF denotes tetrathiafulvalene and its derivatives are well known as the component molecules for molecular conductors. Crystal structures and physical properties including electrical conductivity of the TTF-based metal complexes were investigated. We succeeded in the development of thin layer film of Cu(II) complex by the vacuum evaporation process and the fabrication of its FET device. Because the FET properties were not observed in the device of the Cu(II) complex, we modified the TTF based metal complex in order to apply the wet process for device construction. We prepared a new metal complex having self-assembling ability; the cubic metal complex with long alkyl chains attached to the TTF ligands exhibited gelation for some organic solevents.
